Floats full of charm
Classic cars, jeeps, and tractors
Farm animals (a big hit every year!)
Fun, creative ideas that celebrate our town

Parade participants should arrive by 8:30 AM at the field next to Saarloos Wagon Wheel Park (2971 Grand Ave). Don’t miss your chance to help us make this year’s parade the biggest and most memorable yet!
